From The Patreon Vault: Lee Austin EP.119 Sign up Today! Lee Austin is the author of Morning Star's Tale, a novel narrated by Lucifer, also known as the "Father of Lies." The book presents itself as Lucifer's revelatory confession, blending hubris, disdain, and a provocative narrative style. Lucifer discloses secrets of his occultic kingdom, the structure of the universe (including controversial topics like the flat earth theory), and explores themes such as alchemy, numerology, Kabbalah, and the DNA structure of man. The novel is noted for its divisive and thought-provoking approach, challenging readers to reconsider accepted truths and sparking theological debate.

To close this season, I wanted to bring you a guest whose presence and legacy transcend words, so I invited back the legendary elder midwife, @sistermorningstar.In this powerful and intimate conversation, Sister MorningStar shares the stories of her three births, her lifelong devotion to traditional midwifery, and the extraordinary account of being put on trial for standing by a mother through a stillbirth at home. This episode is a testament to integrity, to ancestral memory, and to the unshakable fire it takes to stand for women in a culture that does not.✨ That's a wrap on Season Eight. Deep gratitude to every woman who has shared her story on this podcast, and to all of you who continue to witness and walk this path with us.

Beleggen in verzekeraars mag dan saai zijn, voor je rendement is het prima om in je portefeuille te hebben. Dat geldt in ieder geval voor NN Group, dat afgelopen week beleggers bijpraatte over de stand van zaken bij het bedrijf. Schokkend was de sessie niet, maar dat is voor de experts ook niet nodig. "Ze zitten wat agressiever in een aantal ratio's. De aangekondigde aandeleninkoop is met 300 miljoen wel wat onder verwachting", zegt Wilbert Aarts van Bond Capital Partners, "maar de koers is dit jaar al bijna 28 procent opgelopen." Hij heeft NN Group dan ook voor zijn klanten in portefeuille. Riaan Prinsloo van ING is het grotendeels eens met Wilbert. "NN streeft naar een kapitaalgeneratie van 2,2 miljard in 2028. Dat is een mooie groei van 7 à 8 procent." Riaan constateert verder dat NN goedkoper is dan z'n Europese concurrenten, maat wat ik echt mooi vind is het dividendrendement van tegen de 10 procent." De markt is rustig, maar er is nog steeds onzekerheid over de houding van Trump. Markten reageren nu eenmaal volatiel op zijn uitlatingen. Tegelijkertijd staat de fear & greed-index op greed, dus er zit best veel kracht in de markt, mensen willen wel beleggen. Ook het feit dat Europa en de VS weer in gesprek zijn over de handelstarieven doet het sentiment goed. Verder in de podcast o.a. aandacht voor Heineken, Nvidia ('preview') en ING die wellicht een bankvergunning aanvraagt in de VS. Natuurlijk bespreken we de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tips. Wilbert tipt een Nederlands industrieel concern, Riaan tipt een ETF met de ISIN-code IE00BMFKG444. Geniet van de podcast! Let op: alleen het eerste deel is vrij te beluisteren. Wil je de hele podcast (luisteraarsvragen en tips) horen, word dan Premium lid van BeursTalk. Tot en met 8 juni kost een maandabonnement geen 9,95, maar de eerste drie maanden slechts 7,50 – bijna 25 procent voordeel – en een jaarabonnement is zelfs zo’n 30 procent goedkoper: normaal 99 euro, maar nu betaal je het eerste jaar slechts 70 euro. Voor een maandabonnement is de kortingscode MAAND750, voor een jaarabonnement is dat JAAR70. Abonneren kan hier! VanEck ETF’s (advertorial) Deze week is ook weer het tweewekelijks gesprek te beluisteren met Martijn Rozemuller, ceo van VanEckETF’s, de partner van BeursTalk. Met Martijn behandel ik deze week een crypto-ETN die nog niet zo lang geleden is gelanceerd en we bespreken crypto-ETF die in april volgens Morningstar de best presterende ETF was. De nieuwe ETN is de VanEck Celestia ETN, die belegt in de TIA token. Celestia biedt een netwerk dat het voor ontwikkelaars mogelijk maakt om eigen applicaties of blockchain te maken. Best ingewikkeld, fijn dus dat Martijn even haarfijn uitlegt wat het platform behelst. Daarnaast bespraken we een ETF die breder in de cryptosector belegt, de VanEck Crypto and Blockchain Innovators UCITS ETF. Zoals gezegd, een ETF die het in april heel goed deed, maar Martijn is de eerste om te erkennen, dat zo'n goede performance - zeker bij crypto - erg volatiel is. Martijn vertelt je er alles over, geniet van de podcast!

It's been quite a ride for equity markets this year. Uncertainty and volatility hit a fever pitch in the weeks following President Trump's sweeping tariff announcement in April as investors feared the potential for rising inflation, slow economic growth, and US assets, losing their aura of dominance.

Technology isn't just a sector anymore—it's the driving force reshaping every industry. Whether companies are creating technology or adopting it to avoid disruption, understanding this transformation is crucial for investment success.Columbia Threadneedle's tech investment approach stands apart through its disciplined focus on three complementary buckets: moat-type businesses with sustainable competitive advantages, secular growth themes identified early, and value opportunities where market prices underestimate business quality. This balanced strategy has consistently generated top-tier returns, with their technology portfolio ranking in Morningstar's top third for 8 of the past 12 years.What truly distinguishes their approach is patience. With just 7% annual turnover, they allow investments in companies like Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and NVIDIA to compound over many years. This long-term perspective proves especially valuable when navigating tech's inherent volatility. As portfolio manager Rahul explains, even AI—their largest investment theme since 2016—has experienced two 20% pullbacks in the last 18 months alone.Recent earnings revealed tech's continued strength, with mega-cap tech growing earnings 28% versus just 9% for the remainder S&P 493. Cloud infrastructure spending is projected to reach $390 billion this year, nearly nine times higher than a decade ago. While tariffs pose the most significant current risk, particularly for semiconductors, the team's diversified approach and deep research capabilities help manage these challenges.With technology now representing 31% of the S&P 500 and nearly half the Russell 1000 Growth Index, investors increasingly recognize the value of specialist management in this complex sector. Columbia Threadneedle's recently launched Select Technology ETF (SEMI) offers another vehicle to access their expertise alongside their established funds.Ready to enhance your portfolio with professional technology exposure?

Israel's brutal genocide in Gaza reached new disastrous levels, and some European governments have taken a slight shift in tone of their support of Israel.

When markets hit a rough patch—as they did in early April—investors often lose confidence. Emotions run high after paper losses, and that's when many fall into the “ready, fire, aim” trap. Decisions become reactive, not disciplined. It's common to see investors flee to cash or pivot to more conservative positions in an effort to feel safer. But more often than not, resisting that urge is the better path. In this episode of Simple, But Not Easy, we sit down with Morningstar's Global Chief Research & Investment Officer, Dan Kemp, to explore how advisors can guide clients through uncertainty—not with bold predictions, but by remaining anchored to a clear investment philosophy.

Morningstar has a $250 price target on Tesla (TSLA), almost $100 below where the stock currently sits. Seth Goldstein says his firm sees robotaxi as a significant profit driver for the company but doesn't see it for years down the line. He adds that deliveries are expected to remain weak for the mid-term. Seth notes that Morningstar values all of Tesla's businesses together and explains that valuation serves as a key component behind bearishness. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

On this episode of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Steven Aripez! Aripez is an independent filmmaker from Temecula, California whose love for movies dates back to his childhood. He started taking film seriously at the age of 16, initially as a writer. Aripez wrote, produced, directed and edited his first feature film entitled The Director's Cut. Inspired in part by the style of movies like Clerks from Kevin Smith, The Director's Cut (2022) is a hangout murder mystery set in a video store. Additionally, Aripez has writer credits for The Morning Star, as well as writer and producer credits on Switchblade Holiday, and Rob, The Robber. He's also one of the brains behind The Temecula Valley Film Festival. An avid fan of horror and comedy, the next adventure for Aripez is his raunchy comedy film entitled Romancing with Herp. A nod to gutter cinema in the vein of films like Knocked Up, Superbad, and The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Aripez launched a Kickstarter for Romancing with Herp that's active through 6/5/25 to help bring independent, raunchy romcoms back to the mainstream. In this episode, Aripez talks with Mike about the genesis of Romancing with Herp, including the film's plot, getting Tober Williams, Nikki Howard, Nick Hibbitts, and Steve Bridges signed on to the movie, the Kickstarter perks for backers, his love for gutter cinema and raunchy comedies, his goal of getting a theatrical release for the movie, shooting the film locally in Temecula, and more.

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome David Blanchett back to the podcast. David is the Managing Director and Head of Retirement Research at PGIM DC Solutions and one of the most respected voices in retirement income planning today. You've likely come across his work in Morningstar, Kiplinger, and our Weekend Reading series—and for good reason. His research has earned accolades from nearly every major financial planning organization. In our conversation, we picked up where we left off back in Episode 55 with David's groundbreaking research on retirement spending patterns and adapting it to today's environment of elevated interest rates and persistent inflation. From challenging the idea of a "retirement crisis" that is making headlines everywhere to rethinking the 4% retirement income rule, David helps us distill the data and build income strategies grounded in behavioral and financial realities. In our conversation, we discuss the value and confidence that guaranteed lifetime income annuities provide retirees and how inflation concerns are impacting spending patterns. If you're planning your retirement or considering an adjustment to your current plan, this episode is packed with insights to help you spend your hard-earned dollars with confidence and design a secure and fulfilling retirement. In this podcast interview, you'll learn: Why “retirement crisis” is an overused headline—and why “challenge” is the better word. What David's research reveals about how real retirees spend—and why most don't adjust spending for inflation as expected. Why a 5% withdrawal rate may be more appropriate than 4% in today's interest rate environment. The behavioral power of guaranteed income—and how it gives retirees the freedom to actually enjoy their savings. How to build inflation hedges into your portfolio using tools like TIPS, annuities, and real assets. Show Notes: RetireWithPurpose.com/499

He's looking out to 2026 for a “real turnaround” in its numbers. Tom White shows example options trades on Nike (NKE) and On Holding (ONON).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
